Take the money. You can make your title anything you want on LinkedIn and on your resume. You only need to put your official title on the application form, which is either checked by an outsourced company, or checked by a lower-level HR drone.

Has anyone else gone back to relying more on public transportation with the surging Uber / Lyft prices. Trips to and from ohare are costing me about as much as the plane tickets themselves, and even simple things like meeting a friend for dinner in another neighborhood ends up costing around $80 in transportation costs. I haven’t taken buses and trains much since I’ve graduated but now it just feels like I’m throwing money out the window by not making the switch back.
